Shannonville November 4th Video's and Pictures

This track is pretty fun but really hard on the brakes. After I pulled off from my first session I saw smoke coming out from the front of the car and got worried but then when I went out to pop the hood realized it was the front brakes that were smoking. I really need to try slicks next year. Street tires just can't keep up on the corners. Also I keep braking for turn 1, I don't feel confident taking it without braking to much yet.

Anyway, heres my in car vids with crappy sound... I need a better camcorder for this (even though I bought this one specifically for it since its flash memory)

Hence "crappy sound" basically once the car starts moving, the vibrations kills the sound...

I attended my first school at Shannonville in 1998. I'll never forget my instructor yelling at me "BRAKES! BRAKES!" because I never lifted going in to one, even passing my instructor on the outside once LOL

I should probably do some instruction next year also. Improve my lines and braking points since I'm really random on braking still. This fact was shown more at Shannonville then Mosport.

Here are two last clips from that day, the last one shows me following a silver integra that almost puts it on the roof!

Nice vids guys. Any one have any pictures or a link to some? I was there in the black NB miata. Great day, i had lot of fun. Went through 1.25 tanks of gas, a set of pads, and half a set of all season tires on track.
